Dr. Scott S. Lee Is Accused of Sexual Assault at the California Institution for Women and Other Locations.

It’s Time for Justice.

It Doesn’t Matter If You Were in Prison or If You Saw Dr. Lee in Another Location. All Women Deserve Respectful Medical Care.

At the California Institution for Women:

A significant percentage of women who wind up in prison are survivors of previous domestic abuse or sexual assault before being incarcerated. For a prison OB-GYN to further assault them under the guise of medical care is trauma on steroids. The women at CIW were given no other option for medical care: if they chose not to visit Lee, their other option was to receive no medical care.

At Other Locations:

Dr. Lee had a long career, and we are hearing from many women who were assaulted by him at various locations in Mission Viejo and Orange, CA, including:

Women’s Health Center (Mission Viejo, CA)
Florida Highway Patrol, Fitness and Health Promotion Inc. (Fountain Valley, CA)
County of Riverside, CA
Doctors of Women (Orange, CA)
Bristol Park Medical Group (Mission Viejo, CA)

Outrage at Stories of Brutal Assault.

One inmate’s daily journal, a detailed recording of each examination, is now key testimony – the “smoking gun” – in the Dr. Scott Lee assault lawsuit that charges CIW leadership with enabling the OB-GYN’s misconduct to continue uninterrupted in a “culture of silence.”²

Another prisoner who was seven-and-a-half months pregnant when Lee examined her reported that he digitally violated her with such brute force that she was “scared and disturbed seeing the blood because she was in the late stage of her pregnancy and hadn’t previously bled while pregnant,” according to the complaint. He repeated the same painful abuse when she saw him the following week.

“I remember holding my stomach,” she said, “and I was just praying, ‘God, please let this be over, please let this be over, please let this be over.’ I felt like he was raping my baby.”³

Plaintiff Jane Doe #3, told ABC that “due to that [Lee’s painful examination], I can’t even go to the gynecologist now that I’m free, you know, I can’t even enjoy some of my freedom, and that’s just added to my trauma.”⁴

In 2022, Lee was also reported to the Medical Board of California for sexually abusing a pregnant patient and then delaying her transport to a hospital when she went into labor, the lawsuit says, alleging that “officials again failed to take action.”

What Can You Do If Dr. Scott Lee Assaulted You?

Contact A Case for Women immediately if you were sexually assaulted by Dr. Lee. Our private intake team (real humans on the other end of the line when you reach out to us) are trauma trained in hotline + sexual abuse emergencies and prepared to hear your story with urgent compassion.

First, though, we want to remind you that your dignity is still very much intact and that it’s your right to go after Lee. We will be with you every step of the way – adding our rage to yours + helping you find contingency fee legal assistance. In fact, we only partner with attorneys who work on contingency, which is to say you pay them nothing upfront or out-or-pocket, and unless your attorneys are not successful, you will owe them nothing at the end of the day.

Civil law, what we do, goes after the powers-that-be at the top of every corporate or institutional hierarchy, decision-makers who repeatedly cut corners or turn a blind eye to your suffering.

The aim of civil lawsuits is to provide injured or abused women with money to rebuild their lives and to send a message to the powers-that-be that they need to make sure ALL women are treated in a respectful and safe way during medical treatments.

The Dr. Scott Lee lawsuit represents dehumanization at its most corrupt: hurting those without options who are constantly at the mercy of someone else’s behavior.

And going after these hospitals/institutions that turned a blind eye to assault is not new for us. We’ve worked with dozens of women to help hold major systems accountable for allowing women to be hurt.

Some of our cases include:

We are here 24/7/365, ready to move into action when you feel ready to tell us your story.
